Morning Prayers for World Youth Day Pilgrims and others at Corpus Christi Church, Waratah on the feast of Saint Benedict.
(Saint Benedict's Rule is considered a powerful force in building the civilization of Christian Europe. He would have been an abbot and his significant work related to monastic life - the Benedictines. He died in the sixth century.
Trivia: Benedictine liqueur was made famous by a monk. Is this an occasion for strawberries and cream laced with the liqueur!)

Update: I believe this is incorrect in that it was really the feast day of another different Saint Benedict.
Community service by the Pilgrims. This drab area will be improved by tree plantings made close to Warabrook Station (which serves the University of Newcastle in the distance on the other side of the rail line) Another sunny, chilly, windy day.

It would'nt be Newcastle without its coal trains and one is in the background. Newcastle has one of the largest coal ports there is and it is juxtaposed with greening activities.
The city council has equipment and seedlings and works with volunteer group who join in tree planting and greening the city.
